How to find a good nutritionist in Morgantown WV?

I know there are some Morgantownies out there.. husband needs to lose a significant amount of weight, and we'd like to do it with help from a nutritionist or other appropriate healthcare person (primary care doc didn't seem very interested). How do we find a *good* nutritionist - one that isn't a new age quack or beholden to some military-industrial-dieting-complex?

Our insurance is with PEIA, if it's relevant.

Have you checked with the university? WVU has a Human Nutrition and Foods program you might find useful ...

I just started at WVU last week, so I've been poking around on the PEIA website. Have you seen this?

I can't speak specifically to your area, but if you want someone who isn't a new age quack, you should consider searching for a Dietician, not a Nutritionist. Dieticians are licensed professionals, while any old new age quack can call him/herself a Nutritionist.
